Development of distinct load signatures for higher efficiency of NILM algorithms

“…In [22] the authors propose a NILM approach that relies on feature extraction by the current and voltage waveforms under the steady state. In this paper seven typical residential appliances are examined, while their LSs are formed based on the active and reactive power that has been measured for each load individually.…”

Intelligent domestic electricity management system based on analog-distributed hierarchy

“…The approach of data collection can choose RMS converter, Hall sensors, or the combination of sample resistances and AD, which could facilitate the way of data acquisition [17,18]. The inside communication can be achieved by RS-422, RS-485, or CAN, which are all serial bus technologies.…”
